The In Tray appears as it develops will be a great asset and time saver. 

 

If you can link to an exisiting bill, You should be able to link to an existing order.

 

We eneter our orders (yellow) then send to our supplier. hen the invoice comes in we change to a bill (blue). This allows us to keep track of backorders etc.

 

If you could link to an existing order with your in tray invoice why could you not automatically change the order to a bill?. Basicall In tray only works for bills only. If this would change it would benefit a lot of businesses.

 

In tray is a great step forward.

Hi @Projex 

Thank you for your feedback in regards to the In Tray with AccountRight.

Currently you can only link the In Tray documents with bills. This is due to the fact that order doesn't have accounts affecting it until its been converted to a bIll. 

However I would encourage others that would like to see the In Tray documents to be linked to orders and possible convert those orders when linked to vote and comment if required.

Please implement this idea as I currently don't use In Tray as I have to double handle every invoice

I support this too. Finally started using the feature but most of our purchases have orders first... There is no time-saving here and I'm thinking it might actually be using extra time. And why can't MYOB detect the supplier and limit the options when selecting "link to existing". It can identify the supplier for a new purchase but not for an existing one? Maybe we won't bother with it after all.

As a very small business owner of just myself and one other casual employee, I am often a little behind on my paperwork.  I also try to run a paperless office.  So it would be great if I could add a document to an existing order rather than having to turn that order into an invoice, before I pay it.  

 

Otherwise I find myself having to open the pdf document, enter the details from the invoice into the order, which means jumping from screens back and forth, and then having to go back into the In Tray to add documents, then add it to the invoice.  There is a bit of doubling up. All of which takes up precious time.  

 

On another note, it would also be great to link the document when you are actually in the order or invoice screen.,

We should be able to attach a document to a Purchase order.

Just wondering if there was any updates on this? We are trying to go paperless and it would be very handy when paying an order.

The workflow for matching a supplier invoice to an order is needlessly complex.  There should be an option to link when you select to use an existing order after selecting Create New Bill.

 H MYOB - you did not listen to @Projex golden tip for your company. We know this is the reason - Projex is saying hey guys, do something about it.

PS to @Projex - this response means they are not interested in your suggestion as they feel it is plenty good enough already.

Hi,

 

New user here.  Looks like the issue of linking the In Tray documents with orders has been brought up since 2015.  It's 2021 already and we still do not have this option.  A lot of users have pointed out that it it very time consuming to be creating bills first before you can link the invoice.

Any update on this feature?

Thank you.

Hi MYOB

I was wondering if you can Please allow us to attached documents and files to a Purchase or Sales Order NOT just a Bill or Invoice.

Then when you commit a order or a purchase to a Invoice or a Bill it carries over the same attachment.

 

This feature would be very helpful to us.

Thank-you Kindly
